GAVS Technologies granted a US Patent for Detecting and Preventing Data Exfiltration Attacks

January 16, 2023

Princeton, New Jersey and Chennai, India, January 16, 2023: GAVS Technologies (GS Lab | GAVS) has been granted another patent by the US Patent Office (US 11,457,025 B2) for detection and prevention of data exfiltration attacks.

Data exfiltration is the malicious transfer of data from a computer or a server or any other device to an external world. The advent of Social media and proliferation of high-speed internet help hackers to penetrate the enterprise networks however highly secure they are. Endpoints are one of the easiest access points for hackers, and so an all-encompassing approach to data security that monitors and protects every endpoint in an organization’s network is critical.

There have been many attempts to address this challenge using solutions around monitoring device data, gateway data or device clustering etc. But they have not been effective in preventing these exfiltrations. 

Explaining how this patented method and system is different than the rest, Chandra Mouleswaran S, SVP and Head of IP & Infra, GS Lab | GAVS, says, “Our new solution is based on using SNMP proxy to detect the downloads and Deep Learning models to detect the malware in the downloads. Hence, the solution detects the activity even before a device starts sending the confidential data outside.”

Balaji Uppili, COO, GS Lab | GAVS, says, “In a world with increasingly complex cybersecurity needs, our novel method and system will enable organizations keep their and their customers’ data safe.”
